I really appreciated how he kept learning and accomplishing new things even in 60s and 70s. Really inspiring, and I think that is probably as much of the secret to his youthfulness as the standard that we all know about: eat well and keep moving.
Here is a female indian martial arts teacher, age 74-80 on these videos. Manages to "kick asses" in sari, staying graceful and feminine. Also her posture is so great.
I saw her firts time on Joanna Lumley's travel program. She was 4 years older than Lumley at that time, and made her look like pathetic hag.
@Elspeth: I have never understood why people stop learning and achieving. I mean learning new stuff is FUN. Why some elderly people don't want to have fun anymore?
Thank you for sharing this. Very motivating!!
ReplyDeleteYou are welcome, Rose! I'm glad you liked it:)
ReplyDeleteCouldn't watch, because narrator's voice. But I assume "secret" was the obvious: keep moving and eating protein.
ReplyDeleteOn healthy people 90 % of "age-related" issues are actually issues related to sedentary lifestyle and poor diet.
